Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
Few things at Angler's Headquarters. Eco Pro tungsten was 55% off (deal of the day) and the hooks were 50% off. They also threw in the trick worms for free since I shared their post on my FB page.

Is it a trap?
Well, let us no how it goes! May the odds be ever in your favor!

squarebill line
Exactly what I use. Yo Zuri 12lb would be good too. Use the same thing for chatterbaits/spinnerbaits. 8lb might give you a headache, usually fishing squarebills around pretty gnarly stuff. 12lb Xxx = 17+ break strength

Your idea of light for rod/reel?
My Okuma Helios rod(3.6oz)/reel(6.3oz) is my lightest setup. Light as a feather

Square bill rod
6'9 MH-MF, I'm usually aiming at specific targets. Stumps, letdowns, etc.. MH helps get fish out of cover and a soft tip helps keep it pinned.

Kvd line and lure freezing?
I would give it a try. I think it's water based which led to it freezing and when that happens i'm guessing some of the chemicals seperate. I think thawing it out and giving it a good shake would do the trick. Even if it didn't work as well I don't think it would harm the line.

Is it a trap?
I see it as the same thing when my girlfriend says don't get me anything for Christmas or a random holiday. I'll always end up getting something no matter what. Or go hang out with your friend's ..I always do the opposite to avoid the inevitable arguing. And it's just the nice thing to do for that special someone. Plus, women have the memory of 10 elephants. You may not hear about it the next day, or month, but believe me you'll hear about it.

Anyone else do this when they can't fish?
I sit at my desk and tie knots and leader knots. Put random baits like jigs in the sink and see what they look like underwater. Change the hooks on my jerkbaits lol im from WI, makes for a long winter, especially when you're not that into ice fishing.

Finesse Jig Trailer
I believe it's the perfection color paca craw and a brown craw greenfish tackle finesse jig.

Finesse Jig Trailer
I like them a lot. The pincers are fairly buoyant and they're the perfect size to thread on the hook.

Shoe Recommendation
That's the one thing I like about the class 5 is that sand and pebbles don't get in as much.
-
Finesse Jig Trailer
I put paca chunks on my finesse jigs and the Sr. size on regular size jigs.

Shoe Recommendation
I have the Keen Class 5 Tech. Fairly inexpensive and they're not heavy and clunky. I got them to use around boat ramps and kayaking. http://www.moosejaw.com/moosejaw/shop/product_Keen-Men-s-Class-5-Tech-Shoe_10274188_10208_10000001_-1_?cm_mmc=PPC-_-GooglePlusBox-_-Keen-_-Keen-Men-s-Class-5-Tech-Shoe&ad_id=GooglePlusBox&utm_source=GooglePlusBoxl&utm_medium=PLA&utm_campaign=Keen-Men's-Class-5-Tech-Shoe&ad_id=Google&cm_mmc=PPC-_-Google-_-Product%2BListing%2BAds%2B-%2BShopping_Keen-_-44053436683&kcid=1828e01a-004b-4939-9440-9c8b6258da63&utm_medium=PPC&utm_source=GOOGLE&utm_campaign=Product%2BListing%2BAds%2B-%2BShopping&utm_term=&lsft=adtype:pla,channel:online&gclid=COmCq82-4coCFQMLaQod3nIA7A

Jerkbait line
How do you like the 8lb for jerkbaits? When do you use 12 YZH I thought that might be a bit much. It's about the same size as 12lb invizx (8lb yzh) so I figured I'd give it a try. How do you like XXX for jerkbaits? I use it for everything else, I think I'm going to try the 8lb since it's about the same diameter of 12lb invizx.
-
Jerkbait line
How is it working so far? I was going to give the 8lb a try because it's pretty much 12lb line.
-
Dropshotting line choice
15lb PP w/ an 8lb seagaur red label leader. Not the best for mainline but a pretty darn good inexpensive leader material.

La Crosse, WI bass club?
Hey guys, I was just wondering if there was any clubs in the area. We're along the Mississippi and there's tons of great fishing so I imagine there is a few. Any info would be appreciated! Thabks!
